0 Gauge Locomotive Kit
LNER Class G5 0-4-4 Tank
Prototype. This class of 110 locomotives was built from 1894. They were the
standard design of passenger tank until 1907. In later years members of the class
wandered southwards. They worked on outer London suburban services and
East Anglia branch lines. The class lasted until 1958.
Kit. The body is etched in brass with nickel silver being used for the chassis. The
bogie is sprung and compensated. Slide bars and valve gear are represented
between the frames. Cab interior is detailed and a cast back head is provided.
Alternative components for bunker, buffer beams and other later changes made
to some locomotives are provided. Etched fire irons and a choice of number
plates are included.
This kit has been designed to provide a set of quality components, that will allow
the modeller who has basic kit building skills to build an 0 gauge model of the
prototype, to a standard of detail that is suitable for operating models on most 0
gauge layouts.
